No, he deserves to be forgotten and ignored like the nothing he is.

I agree, hopefully she will take that advice.

That would've been our 5 year anniversary. To make matters worse they're having a destination wedding in Jamaica at the same resort I told him five years ago I wanted to get married, but he was against the idea because he wanted to make sure his family was there. I'm a little annoyed and maybe even a little jealous about their upcoming nuptials! This woman was originally his AP (the reason we got divorced) and now she seems to be getting my dream wedding. Ok, I'm done venting now.

Perhaps you should focus a bit more on your dream life partner rather than your dream wedding.

While I agree with the PPs, it is still a really awful thing to do. I'm sorry, OP. Please try to focus on moving onward and upward, which I know is hard.

"would've been our anniversary"? Why do you care? Grow up.

For crying out loud, it is natural to think it bizarre that your ex-husband decides to remarry on your anniversary. Because it is bizarre!

But OP, if he mentions it again, you can laugh and say, "so funny that you are still so obsessed with our marriage when I'm just grateful it's over." Would be even better if you knew of a mutual friend who could tell him something similar.

Even if it's not true - since I would bet he chose the wedding date and place as a hostile gesture to you. Don't give him the satisfaction of thinking it worked.

Hi, there! I’m so sorry to hear about your situation. Issues like this are very complicated and I can certainly understand that it’s hard to digest. I’ll be praying for you, friend. Hang in there!

I do think I'd be bratty and try to find a way to tell the woman. Or at least ask him if he's told his fiance that it's the same anniversary. No WAY that woman knows. And if she did she'd move it for sure.

This. I bet she doesn't know. He's being spiteful and I bet she would be very unhappy to know that he's using her wedding as a way to spite you. And share an anniversary, no less. Creep City.

The best case scenario I can imagine is that he has a shitty memory for dates and figures if he has the same anniversary date he's already had to remember, he won't forget it and get in trouble.

Any way you can mention the same wedding date thing when the current woman is present? The last thing I'd want is the same anniversary. It would make the marriage seem doomed. You have to let the resort thing go, though.

He did the date and location on purpose. She needs to let it go and stop talking to him. Therein lies the bigger problem, she is too involved with their life for some reason.

OP here, I'm not involved in their life, he called me and disclosed this information. I didn't ask him.

I'm sorry it seems immature to you that I'm hurt by this.

Oh, well. You don't own the date.

Just say "oh, how nice!" and wait for this one to implode. Its inevitable and it will be hilarious (from the outside). The more saintly you handle this now the louder you can laugh later.
